Miroslav Klose could get home farewell

World Cup record goal-scorer Miroslav Klose has yet to decide whether to continue his international career -- but the president of the German Football Association wants to give him a farewell appearance on home soil if he chooses to bow out.

His two goals at the 2014 World Cup took his total for the competition to 16 in 24 games over four tournaments, putting him one ahead of previous record-holder Ronaldo.

And should he choose to call it a day, DFB president Wolfgang Niersbach said he wanted to ensure that he could make one last appearance in front of his own fans.

"I would like to enable him to say goodbye at home," he told reporters in Rio on Monday. "I have not talked to the coach about it, but he has absolutely deserved it."

Germany boss Joachim Low joked: "Everything's possible with Klose. Maybe he'll play for another four years."

Klose's Lazio president Claudio Lotito told kicker: "Miroslav Klose is part of football history. I am convinced that he will retire from football here. That's a very special honour for us." The striker is under contract with the Serie A club until next year.

Germany will take on Argentina in a friendly rematch of the World Cup final in Dusseldorf on Sep. 3.
